Hi,

Has anyone had their pouch disconnected and then reconnected again later on? Mine was disconnected and I currently have a loop illeostomy.

G-Day AJR, I had a J-Pouch for 18 years and could not wait to get rid of it, and no way would I ever go back to one. My Ileostomy is a life changer, I love it. Regards IGGIE

Hello AJR

There would have to be a non surgical miracle solution before I would go back to a jpouch.

If you've had a colostomy or ileostomy, you may experience some common food-related issues.

The good news is that you can avoid them with some small changes in your diet.

Hi Iggie,

what problems did you have with your jpouch? Why would you not go back to it?
